About The Position

PeteDME is seeking a licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to provide teletherapy for patients in its MSK Integrated Care program. The program combines knee and lumbar bracing with physical therapy and remote therapeutic monitoring, delivered through a network of in-home therapists. Teletherapy visits and monitoring calls are paid per visit and per call, with flat fees fixed in advance. Therapists begin by completing six paid in-person brace fittings for patients from their existing caseload. Each fitting includes intake, fitting, and follow-up. PeteDME provides a screening tool to identify eligible patients and handles prescriptions, benefit verification, and paperwork. After the six fittings, therapists may receive teletherapy referrals from PeteDME and provide care from home on their own schedule. The role is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job, and it does not require referrals or sales activity. Specialized orthopedic-bracing training and certification are provided at no cost, and AI-generated SOAP notes are available without requiring a new EMR.
